Chapter 229 Ning Yao's Power Shocks the Entire Audience
Ning Yao's words to Huo Muxi put Wen Tingye in a great mood. He ignored the pain from his wounds and laughed loudly.
This woman has publicly acknowledged that he is her man.
It's perfect, especially in front of those two pretty boys.
Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue gave Wen Tingye a strange look. He was injured but still so happy. Could it be that President Wen has lost his mind?
"Ning Yao? You said your name is Ning Yao?" Huo Muxi was shocked. She grabbed Ning Yao's sleeve tightly and repeated it several times as if seeking confirmation.
Ning Yao coldly shook off Huo Muxi's hand, stood up, and dusted off her palms.
Silence means consent?
Huo Muxi then understood why Ning Chen would risk his life to protect Luo Xiyao; it turned out that Luo Xiyao was Ning Yao.
They are the same person. There was never any transfer of affection. Ning Chen has always been protecting this woman named Ning Yao.
"So you are Ning Yao..." Huo Muxi felt a tightness in her chest, and even forgot the pain of the dagger piercing her body. Her eyes were full of sorrow and her face was full of desolation.
When the Huo family saw their young lady being bullied, they all wanted to step forward, but were stopped by Wen Tingye's men.
The Huo family members gritted their teeth and glared at Wen Tingye, threateningly saying, "Master Wen, Miss is our Third Master's own niece. Aren't you afraid of angering him by doing this?"
Wen Tingye let the doctor treat his wounds, his eyes fixed on Ning Yao with affection.
Upon hearing someone from the Huo family speak, Wen Tingye calmly rolled up his sleeves, his voice gentle yet carrying a hint of wickedness.
"Oh? Call your third master now and ask him what to do if his own niece shot and wounded me?"
The Huo family fell silent. It was indeed the young lady who started it. If we really investigated, the one who struck first would probably be the one responsible.
"I'm in a good mood today and don't intend to argue with your young lady. Before I change my mind, take her out of here." Wen Tingye watched the doctor remove the bullet from his flesh without even frowning, and his voice was completely calm.
The Huo family members exchanged glances. This Wen Tingye was not someone they could afford to offend. It would be best to report to Third Master first.
They carried the unconscious Huo Muxi out of the cabin. Several people took Huo Muxi to her room for medical treatment, while two others stayed near the cabin to call Huo Zhijing.
Ning Moran handed Wen Tingye's private doctor a vial of clear medicine that was slightly tinged with urine yellow.
"It's a pain reliever, better than anesthesia, and doesn't harm the body or brain nerves."
Wen Tingye raised an eyebrow and remained silent, clearly not intending to use it.
At this moment, Ning Yao walked over quickly, took the medicine directly, and put it into the private doctor's hand.
"Give it to him, no need to ask his opinion." Ning Yao's voice carried a strong, cold tone, and the doctors inexplicably obeyed her.
After the medicine was injected into his body, it took effect quickly. Wen Tingye felt no pain, and his eyes became even clearer.
"How does it feel to assert sovereignty?" Wen Tingye pulled Ning Yao into his arms, holding her like a doll, afraid of hurting her if he was too heavy, and afraid of breaking her if he was too light.
“You—” Ning Yao didn’t expect that Wen Tingye would still be in the mood to joke with her at this time.
It seems that shooting him was too lenient; this man is just asking for trouble.
"You're really not afraid of death? That's a gun, do you think it's a toy? Who asked you to take the hit for me?" Ning Yao was still shaken and didn't want Wen Tingye to risk his life again if they encountered the same situation next time.
"Even if the bullet only hit my arm, or even if it hit here, I wouldn't blink." Wen Tingye raised his slender fingers and gently poked his temples twice.
"Don't do that again!" Ning Yao pretended to be fierce, her eyes glaring at Wen Tingye with a threatening look.
The bullet pierced Wen Tingye's body, and in that instant, Ning Yao felt as if the sky was about to collapse.
She even wished the bullet had hit her, not Wen Tingye.
What would she do if something happened to Wen Tingye?
That was the only thought that flashed through her mind at the time, and she couldn't explain why she had that idea.
She couldn't understand why she didn't know what to do after Wen Tingye was gone.
"Then you'd better stay quietly by my side and stop bothering those pretty boys and causing me trouble." Wen Tingye raised an eyebrow at the woman in his arms and said in a deep voice.
He didn't do anything to those two pretty boys because he knew they posed no threat to him whatsoever.
Not doing anything excessive doesn't mean he's not jealous or doesn't care.
His woman is his, and other men can't even look at her, let alone be so intimate with her.
"I'll say it one last time, they're not my gigolos." Ning Yao said, gritting her teeth as she pinched Wen Tingye's arm.
"Come back to my room with me and explain your relationship with these two men properly." Wen Tingye let Ning Yao pinch him, and before the private doctor could finish bandaging his wounds, he picked Ning Yao up in his arms.
He arrogantly bypassed the crowd, and with Ning Yao in tow, steadily headed towards the luxurious VIP suite on the top floor.
After Wen Tingye and Ning Yao left, things in the cabin were barely back to normal.
Costa Cruises staff came over to clear the area and comfort the frightened guests in the cabins.
Cui Mengmeng belatedly patted her chest, leaned closer to Xin Yujue, and whispered, "This is the first time I've ever seen real gunfire hit a person..."
"President Wen is so domineering. He fired the gun so fast. He must have instinctively and reflexively protected Yao Yao."
"Human instinct is to protect oneself, but President Wen's instinct is to protect Yao Yao. My God, that's so enviable."
"Mm." Xin Yujue nodded, her voice gentle.
In fact, the instant Huo Muxi raised her gun to fire, she clearly saw Ning Chen and Ning Moran's toes move towards Luo Xiyao's direction, only not as quickly as President Wen's.
It wasn't just President Wen who was willing to risk his life to protect Luo Xiyao; Ning Chen and Ning Moran were also among those who did.
It's no exaggeration to say that Luo Xiyao is truly showered with love and affection, a blessing that many women could only dream of.
"By the way, I just received news that Xue Jiashu's retribution has come." Cui Mengmeng held up her phone, her eyes no longer showing any fear of being attacked, but completely replaced by gloating.
"What kind of retribution?" Xin Yujue asked curiously.
"Someone leaked Xue Jiashu's indecent photos and hotel records. Guess when was the most recent one?" Cui Mengmeng kept everyone in suspense, winking at Xin Yujue and curving her lips into a smile.
"I can't guess, just tell me." Xin Yujue pretended to snatch Cui Mengmeng's phone to see how Xue Jiashu would be punished.
"His most recent hotel booking record was the night before he went to the mall to put on a 'melodramatic act,' which means that he had just booked a hotel with another woman and done 'that kind of thing,' and the next day he went to the media to show how painful it was for him to be abandoned by Yao Yao."
"Haha, don't you think this scumbag is slapping his face?"
"His hotel booking information has now been publicly posted online and is trending on social media. I don't know how many people are criticizing him."
"I'm going to find some fun in the comments section later. Netizens are really good at cursing these days, and they also tell jokes so vividly and interestingly."
"Oh right, let's go find Yao Yao and tell her the good news." Cui Mengmeng pulled Xin Yujue along, preparing to go to the suite to find her.
Xin Yujue shook her head and said, "Just send her the link in a message. It's better not to bother Yao Yao and President Wen."
“You’re right, being in love is more important, everything else is secondary. We can share it later!” Cui Mengmeng happily put away her phone.
